Style and Design

Luxury Brand

Skulls, by Raquel Giménez, was created in 2014. It is a niche and luxury brand of handmade handbags and accessories inspired by and designed in Miami (USA) and Alicante (SPAIN).

The inventiveness behind the brand’s style is drawn from the cultural trends that dominated America during the 70’s. Skulls is a new concept based on a trend called “tropical sophistication”, which combines the classic touch and transgressor movement inspired in architecture and Art Deco colors. The brand pays tribute to fashion icons from the 70’s including: Jane Birkin, Charlotte Rampling and Bianca Jagger. All of them revolutionized fashion with their exclusive style.

Raquel Giménez studied design in Miami and Alicante and decided to create her own project with a unique approach to fashion accessories. The designer recreated a world of fashion with Skulls, a sophisticated, modern and bold brand. The brand is represented by an iconography of a skull with a happy smile showing no teeth and an inverted heart as a nose.

At the beginning of the concept’s creation, she was attracted by the ‘Catrinas’ of the muralist Diego Rivera, which look like spontaneous skulls, full of energy and love.

Raquel Giménez presents a world of luxury and exclusivity through her designs, with a range of various wearable items in limited quantities. Each piece has a distinct personality with a classic and timeless feel. The design’s focal aim is to give the client an elegant, bold, sophisticated and very feminine look. The careful selection of materials for quality in the production process makes each item a lifelong durable accessory.
